EU gives EUR 60 mln to train Romanian entrepreneurs

Romanian entrepreneurs and managers will be able to take part in business and management trainings as part of European projects with a total value of EUR 60 million. At least 18,000 people could benefit from these trainings, according to the Regional Development Ministry, reports local Startupcafe.ro. The money comes from EU’s Operational Programme Human Capital. Organizations can submit applications for one month starting August 28. The projects will be carried out in the whole country, except for Bucharest and the Ilfov county. Entrepreneurs and managers are part of the target groups, but they will not run the projects. Organizations and firms will run the projects as eligible applicants. These organizations include unions, employers' organizations or business associations. The projects will amount to a maximum of EUR 1 million each. editor@romania-insider.com
